Home History Games News Dictionary		Two goals set by the Poker Channel in recent months to expand their domination have been met this week, as the launch of the company’s reach was successful in both Argentina and South Africa. The firm has set for themselves a lofty expansion plan, which surprisingly they seem to be keeping up with, continuing to spread their television and live internet streaming content to more poker enthusiasts around the world. The addition of South Africa and Argentina alone will extend their reach to 26 million homes on three different continents. In Argentina, the move is significant as it is the first channel dedicated to gambling in the South American country. Six hours of the daily broadcast will be in Spanish, providing new access to around a million television subscribers across the nation. The start date has been set for the 7th of June, when the Poker Channel will be available to online gamblers who also subscribe to cable television channels such as Cablevision, on channel 414, Telered, on channel 81, or 116, and Supercanal on channel 80.

Also beginning June 7th, South African subscribers will be able to watch their favorite poker shows on DSTV, channel 112. The new channel intro will be available for around 2 million subscribers, marking the first time that many European and American poker tournaments will be broadcast to the audience. "This is our first step into Latin America and Africa and a huge milestone for us and our partners,” said Chris White, the managing director for the Poker Channel. “It shows [that] the desire to play and watch poker continues to grow around the world. Were working with the best local TV companies and poker rooms in the region - to televise top tournaments, help viewers improve their game, and choose where to play.”
